I've noted the existance of the adsmtape program and I really need a version
that will work for TSM 4.1 on AIX.  Here's a mail I posted on sourceforge in
the adsmtape discussion:

Hi,

I've inherited a problem where some monthly archive data was tagged for 5
week retention rather than 7 years. Fortunately, this only affects 20% of
the montly archive. Each archive resides on one DLT4 tape so my offsite
tapes still contain the data even though the TSM database has expired the
entries for it. I know the tapes, I know the files, there are no spanned
files and the important files are too big to be aggregated. Tivoli wants
$US85k+ to give me a salvage solution. Is there any chance of a version of
adsmtape that will allow me to get my data back?

If anyone out there can give some advice it would be very much appreciated.

Regards,
